There lived many mice in the house．The woman in the moonlight saw a mouse crawl（爬行）into the house,“Look! In comes one,”she said to the man in the house．The thief was so frightened that he hurriedly crawled out of the house and said to the one waiting outside, “She found me when I was just in．”But the thief outside       , so he said, “Let us two try to crawl into the house together．”At that time two mice happened to crawl into the house, too．The woman saw the mice and shouted,“In come two．Catch them!”The two thieves were terribly frightened．The man in the house said, “You saw them come in, but where are they?I will catch them tonight．”The two thieves started running away at once．
The two thieves wanted to make it clear whether they had been found or not the night before．The next day they acted as men selling sweet potatoes and came before the house．The man and the woman were ploughing（犁地）in their fields．The rein（韁繩）broke and the woman came home for a rope．She saw two men selling sweet potatoes and wanted to buy some．She picked out two which looked like mice．At the time the man couldn’t wait for her any longer in the fields and he ran back from the fields to hurry her up．The woman showed the sweet potatoes to the man and said．“How they look like the two of last night．” The man said,“I asked you to fetch a rope．Why don’t you hurry for it?” The two thieves ran away quickly without their sweet potatoes．

Answer 1

小題1:To tell a joke./To make people laugh.
小題2:At that time two mice happened to crawl into the house, too.
小題3:didn’t believe him
小題4:Because they wanted to make it clear whether they had been found or not the night before.
小題5:這時，男子在田里等不及了，就從田里跑回來催促她。

試題分析：
小題1:寫作意圖題：從文章看作者是寫一篇笑話。
小題2:At that time two mice happened to crawl into the house, too．這兩句話的意思相近。都表示兩只老鼠碰巧從洞里爬了出來。
小題3:上下文串聯(lián)。根據(jù)下文他要兩個人一起爬進去，說明他不相信的一個人的話。
小題4:根據(jù)最后一段第一行The two thieves wanted to make it clear whether they had been found or not the night before．說明他們想弄清楚對方夫妻是不是發(fā)現(xiàn)了他們。
小題5:中英翻譯。
點評：全文講述了一個有趣的故事，兩個小偷被巧合的事情給嚇死了。內(nèi)容較為簡單，要根據(jù)故事發(fā)展的脈絡來梳理文章內(nèi)容，同時注意分析文章細節(jié)。
